`


Forwards the value of an available tensor from
`
inputs
`
to
`
output
`
.

## Summary


`
https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.5/api_docs/cc/class/tensorflow/ops/merge#classtensorflow_1_1ops_1_1_merge
`
waits for at least one of the tensors in
`
inputs
`
to become available. It is usually combined with
`
https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.5/api_docs/cc/class/tensorflow/ops/switch#classtensorflow_1_1ops_1_1_switch
`
to implement branching.


`
https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.5/api_docs/cc/class/tensorflow/ops/merge#classtensorflow_1_1ops_1_1_merge
`
forwards the first tensor to become available to
`
output
`
, and sets
`
value_index
`
to its index in
`
inputs
`
.


Args:

- scope: A [Scope](https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.5/api_docs/cc/class/tensorflow/scope#classtensorflow_1_1_scope) object
- inputs: The input tensors, exactly one of which will become available.

<br />


Returns:

- `
  https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.5/api_docs/cc/class/tensorflow/output#classtensorflow_1_1_output
  ` output: Will be set to the available input tensor.
- `
  https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.5/api_docs/cc/class/tensorflow/output#classtensorflow_1_1_output
  ` value_index: The index of the chosen input tensor in `
  inputs
  ` .
